Part of the pantomime to spout that. I meant from him, but from you, too!

If Rumpytrump meant it, he woudn't switch off the Ukraine defence intelligence.

Russia isn't well integrated into the world markets, it's an isolated economy to a large extent.
It's GDP is less than the Market Capitalisation of several US companies. about 1/14th that of the US as a whole..

I thought I'd check what they import:

Despite this most recent threat to levy new sanctions against Russia, Trump has privately asked aides about providing Moscow with sanctions relief in exchange for engaging in peace talks.

Not that privately if you know
 
Trumpf is biting off more than he can chew by adopting a bad cop/bad cop approach to peace. This is isn't a New York property deal where he can lean on the politicians and businessmen.

I've no idea, either. Unless he was just being a pedant.
 
Just read an interesting piece on how Ronald Reagan won the 'cold war' and defeated Russia principally by empowering Russia's neighbours and imposing the harshest of sanctions on Russia itself, causing Russia to eventually crumble.

Interesting read also from the point of view that Reagan who was reputed to be a war monger, later became known as a peacemaker because of various nuclear reduction treaties.

What I found slightly worrying is that everything Regan did to achieve the fall of Russia, Donald appears to be doing the polar opposite.

Nothing to do with the Russians getting bogged down in Afghanistan, of course.

That was one factor of many, the fact remains that Reagan takes a lot of credit for bringing about the downfall of Russia, and Donald seems to doing the opposite to Reagan.
